The Sport
Orienteering is a thrilling outdoor adventure sport that combines running with navigation. Participants use a detailed map and compass to navigate through diverse and often challenging terrains, aiming to find a series of checkpoints in the shortest possible time. It's a test of both physical endurance and mental agility, as competitors must make quick decisions on the best routes to take through forests, hills, or urban landscapes.Â
